 sinze Quanta also exhibits the same problem.  Can anyone else reproduce
 this ?

I've put up a test page at http://www.leverton.org/test.html which
demonstrates (with screenshots) the problem.  I'd be grateful if a few
people could find time to look at it and see whether they also get the
incorrect rendering of Arial under Konq 3.1 on Testing.

Works fine here (konq 3.1 from karolina's packages)
Maybe check your fontconfig configuration.

Works for me, but I've compile kde3.1 myself using konstruct, everything
else is testing here.

Thanks to you and everyone who tried it.  I'll have to try and track it
down then, this means getting to grips with Testing's font management
I think (no fontconfig in Testing!)
